Navigating my career path has been a journey of exploration and determination. After completing my schooling with science (CBSE), I cleared the NDA exam multiple times, but my path took a different turn. I initially joined an engineering college with a CSE branch but realized it wasn’t the right fit, leading me to drop out in 1st year. I then pursued Economics at SRCC, which aligned more closely with my interests. In 2022, I appeared for CAT and scored 99.68 percentile, converting IIM A, B, C, and L (Only interviews I appeared for). Alongside, I also received a campus placement in an impact consulting firm. I decided to deferred my admission at IIM Ahmedabad and will join the 2025-27 batch. Currently, I’m gaining valuable work experience before diving into my MBA journey at IIM A.
